Baird’s GRC Networking and Content Reception

The evening is designed to bring together a range of players of varying scale and sub-vertical focuses (for example – Supply Chain, RegTech, ESG / ESHQ and GRC Technology) to create new networking connections and, if relevant, explore potential opportunities for collaboration in an informal setting. Baird will be hosting a panel discussion on the theme of De-regulation and its impact on GRC vendors (along with some good food and drinks).
